‘Pundu is one of the last of his kind,’ said Kayah. ‘And you, Timo, are probably our only chance to save them.’

Timo has a strange talent. Since he was little, he has been able to talk to animals. Well, sort of. When he and his pet rat, Lucky, make news headlines, it is the start of a wild adventure – the kind of adventure that Timo has only read about in books. Why is a world-famous billionaire suddenly after him? And what breathtaking secret is she hiding on her private island? Available in Afrikaans and English with black and white illustrations throughout.
